When you view your Class Grades, an asterisk next to a grade indicates that the score is not the original and can be one of two options.
Red asterisk*: Indicates that that grade was manually entered or altered by your instructor.
- The grade may have been an assignment that was completed outside of EMSTesting or Platinum Tests but was added to the Grade Book, so it can be included in the calculation of your overall grade.
- Or the test was administered online, after which your grade was manually adjusted by your instructor. You may even see a note related to the change in your score. Hover your mouse over the icon to read the message.
Orange asterisk*: Indicates that you were given a retest on that test. The grade that appears in the grade book will be the most recent attempt for that test unless additional modifications are made.
If you have any questions about why a score has been altered or a retest was assigned, please reach out to your instructor.
